February 20, 2019 - Stable ice conditions are providing
ice fishing off the North side of South Bass Island
/ Put-in-Bay, but is only accessible from the island. Limit catches of
walleye including many larger fish in the late evening. Ice conditions off
places like Catawba State Park and Crane Creek are very jumbled with open water
areas, so no ice fishing is taking place off the mainland. Weather forecast for the rest of
February does not have any major cold spells, so we doubt mainland ice fishing
will return.

We are looking forward to the
2019 open water season and updating this fishing report to a more modern interactive format
which will allowing people to post their own reports.
